Yessir.

Instead of sig bets this week, Y'all should make BBQ bets. The loser would have to eat a pound of the winning school's BBQ of choice (Mustard Based Pulled Pork or Brisket). The best part about that be is there would be no losers.

And yes CNB, I almost typed "Smoked meat" instead of BBQ, but I didn't want to get the aggie fans too worked up....

I wasn't really trying to dog the guy. To accomplish what he has accomplished by being a 'cue guy is astonishing. TBH if there is a lesson to be learned from Aaron its that if your cue doesn't turn out well odds are you're doing too much.

Anyone that had to eat perfectly good pulled pork that got ruined with mustard would. So would someone in SC trying to eat some dry tough brisket because they don't know how to handle a nice big piece of beef.

Why do Texans even insist on calling their brisket 'barbecue' anyway? It's brisket. That's a perfectly good name for a perfectly tasty food. Just stop insisting that it has to be 'barbecue' and we could end an endless war of words, hate, and torturous attrition over the issue.

Barbeque is how it's cooked not. As long as it is low, slow, indirect heat with some smoke then it is barbeque. I would have thought someone from Vanderbilt would have known that.

There's considerable disagreement on that definition, as anyone from the South or Texas should know. It's not an absolute concept, it's an idea developed (and diverged) over centuries. I even think the word itself is derived from...some Indian tribe. Gotta rush, so no Google.

Mustard is fantastic when used as a binding agent for dry rubs. In fact the best way to put to use a bottle of mustard based sauce is to use a little on a pork butt to help the dry rub stick... Then you don't taste the mustard sauce.

*important note
never put mustard sauce in your beer. then you end up with mustard gas farts and those are deadly.

Very too. Good thing brisket doesn't need anything to get the salt and pepper to stick.

Funny how Columbia has 11 Maurice locations, at one time Maurices bbq was in every Walmart and Sam's nation wide but nobody eats the shite? That's odd

I use this as a rub for brisket and/or butts in my Smokin' Tex.

It is awesome. You're welcome.

Its a close call for 2nd place between Texas, SC, and KC. Memphis style BBQ is king.

I take a locally made steak rub/seasoning similar to the mckormic's montreal seasoning. (sea salt, ground pepper, garlic) I add a little smoked chili powder to it and a little paprika and that's it. turns out great. Smoke is the most important ingredient.

quote:

mid 17th century: from Spanish barbacoa, perhaps from Arawak barbacoa ‘wooden frame on posts.’ The original sense was ‘wooden framework for sleeping on, or for storing meat or fish to be dried.’


or

quote:

The English word "barbecue" and its cognates in other languages come from the Spanish word barbacoa. Etymologists believe this to be derived from barabicu found in the language of the Arawak people of the Caribbean and the Timucua people of Florida;[1][page needed] it has entered some European languages in the form of barbacoa. The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) traces the word to Haiti and translates it as a "framework of sticks set upon posts".


If you dig around, some of the earliest usages were definitely referring explicitly to hog cooking, but I think at this point, most would give deference to the idea that it's a cooking method rather than a meat choice. With that said... pork is unquestionably better. #frickyourdrytexasbriskethoe


ETA: How in the hell does Florida as a state have some attachment to the origin of the word barbecue but overall have such shitty barbecue? Regardless of your opinion on Brisket vs Pork, Texas vs other states, etc... I think we can all agree that's a travesty... get your shite together Florida.

I'll put my Smokin' Tex up against anyone or anything.


Aside with the Nintendo Entertainment System in the 80s from my parents ... it may be the best gift that I have ever received.


My bosses in South Louisiana gave it to me when I got transferred to SC because they know how much SC BBQ fricking sucks and how nasty tFlagship SC Mustard BBQ sauce is. They felt guilty about sending me to a land of such shitty BBQ, and rightfully so.
